Nose
Plain and lightly grassy. Touch of creamy mashed potato and light apricot. Slightly vinous. Water brings out Dolly Mixture like esters, bubblegum. Palate
Delicate and slightly minty and an acetone-like note. High toned with banana, raspberry. Finish
Coconut. Comment
Light, but a good aperitif. Have it with ice.
